9 Tips for Living in a T-Intersection Home
When I work with home builders, we often find ways to prevent T-intersection homes from being built. If you are already living in one, though, I know it can be challenging to many aspects of your life, including your health, wealth, and career. If you can’t move, here are a few simple feng shui tips to improve your life while living in a T-intersection home:
- Use a convex bagua mirror over your front doorway to deflect overwhelming energy from the T-intersection.
- Add fencing at the outside edge of your yard in front of your house, at least.
- Place heavy objects like boulders or deep metal posts in your front yard to block vehicles that might miss their turn.
- Inside, place furniture and décor in a way that promotes a sense of calm and tranquility.
- Incorporate plants, crystals, or soothing colors to bring a sense of peace to the space.
- Use blackout curtains or blinds at night to block out excess light from car headlights.
- Use soundproofing materials to reduce noise from the intersection and/or a white noise sound machine to drown out the noise while sleeping.
- Keep the home clean and organized to promote a sense of calm and clarity.
- Regularly practice stress-reducing activities, such as meditation or yoga, to maintain a sense of peace.
While these tips will help make things a little better, my first piece of advice is to find another home as soon as possible. If that doesn’t work, we may be able to use more advanced techniques for your particular situation.

Feng Shui Your Garden for a Tranquil Outdoor Space
What better place to create harmony with feng shui than a garden? Just imagine the peace you’ll achieve with your green thumb and a little chi. Here are a few feng shui tips for adding tranquility to your garden:
- Add natural elements: Carefully select plants and other natural features that represent the Five Elements of Feng Shui: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Each element has its own symbolism and energy and should generally be used along with the Feng Shui Bagua to create balance and harmony in your garden. For some examples of how to use the elements: fruit trees may represent wood; a small fire pit or red accents could represent fire; stones could represent earth; wrought iron fencing could be used for metal; and a small pond would represent the water element.
- Use winding paths and curved edges: Sharp corners disrupt the flow of energy, which causes tension. Instead, use winding paths and curved edges in your garden to create a more natural flow.
- Use color wisely: Different colors have different meanings in feng shui. For example, green represents renewal, so it’s good to use in areas where you want to encourage growth. Yellow can represent happiness, so it’s a good color to use where you want to create a cheerful atmosphere. Blue represents tranquility, so use it where there should be a peaceful atmosphere. Like with the elements, be sure to refer to the Bagua to make sure you are using colors in the appropriate places.
Use your gardening time and these feng shui tips to not only create a beautiful outdoor space, but also create some additional harmony in your life.

Feng Shui for Kids
Feng shui isn’t just for adults and their careers. In fact, I often help my clients improve their children’s spaces to create a positive environment for them to grow, learn, and have fun.
Here are some tips for adding feng shui into your child’s space, too:
- Choose the right colors: Colors have a big impact on our mood. Use soft colors like pastels and pale blues and greens to create a calming atmosphere in an area like a bedroom. It’s okay, on the other hand, to use more vibrant colors like red and yellow in an area that you’d like to be more stimulating, like a play room. Consider the age and personality of your child when choosing colors for each room where they’ll spend time.
- Place the bed in the right location: The bed is the single most important piece of furniture in a child’s room, as it is where they will spend most of their time. The bed should be placed in the command position, which means it should be positioned in a way that allows the child to see the door from the bed but not be directly in line with it. This helps the child feel rested, safe and secure.
- Keep the bedroom clutter-free: If your kids are simply all over the place, clutter might be the reason. Clutter can be overwhelming for children because it can create a chaotic energy in the room. Especially keep their bedroom organized and free of excess items like toys to create a calming atmosphere.
- Make the bedroom dark at night: It can be tempting to add a nightlight to a bedroom, but I advise instead to go as dark as possible. We generally sleep better in the dark. Light, whether coming from a nightlight or through a window, creates shadows and reflections, which can cause anxiety and disturb sleep. I highly suggest blackout curtains and otherwise block any light into the bedroom.
- Remove electronics in the bedroom: EMF energy from electronic devices can impact sleep, especially for children. If you want your kids to be well-rested, keep televisions, cell phones, computers, and other electronic devices out of the bedroom. My only exception might be a good quality white noise sound machine at the opposite side of the bedroom from where they sleep.
Implementing these and other feng shui recommendations will significantly help your children feel more balanced in life because they will be well-rested and energized at the appropriate times. Growing up is tough. Do what you can to help.

Using Crystals in Feng Shui
Crystals have been used for centuries as powerful tools for healing, balance, and transformation. In Feng Shui, you can use crystals to enhance the energy of your space and to bring positive change into your life.
Here are a few tips for using crystals in Feng Shui:
- Choose the right crystals: Different crystals have different properties and energies. It’s important to choose crystals that resonate with your goals. Some common crystals used in Feng Shui include quartz, amethyst, and citrine.
- Place crystals in strategic locations: Where you place your crystals can have a big impact on the energy of your space. For instance, place hanging quartz crystals in areas of your home or office where you want to spread energy around, such as in long hallways, when your front door opens to stairs, above your toilet, or when your front and back doors line up.
- Cleanse and charge your crystals: Your crystals will absorb negative energy over time and can lose their potency. You’ll need to regularly cleanse your crystals to maintain their effectiveness. To do this, you can clean them with sea salt water, smudge them with sage, or recharge them in sunlight or moonlight.
- Work with the energy of the crystals: Each type of crystal has its own unique properties. When you work with the energy of a specific crystal, you can amplify its effects to bring about positive change in your life. Amethyst, for example, is often used to promote relaxation and clarity. Citrine is used to attract abundance and prosperity.
By using crystals correctly, you’ll enhance the energy of your space to bring positive changes to your life. Don’t overdo it, though.
